Celebrating and Thankful for Alice Kelly
As we close another year, everyone at City Park Alliance would like to take a moment to share our heartfelt THANK YOU to Alice Kelly for her years of dedication and inspiration as a founding member of our organization. Alice has been a cornerstone of knowledge and strength for all the great work CPA has accomplished. While she might be stepping away from the board, she plans to volunteer and guide us for years to come. In honor of her work, one of the new benches near the main City Park Playground includes a new plaque to celebrate Alice. THANK YOU ALICE!!

Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial Repaired
Denver sculptor Ed Dwight repaired the memorial after damage
when some of the plaques were ripped off and sold for scrap. City Park Alliance and the community are grateful to Ed and the city for making sure this historic memorial remains a vital link to our past, as it guides us forward into the future. Story on 9News
Nature Play is open!
Nature Play in our City Park is now open and ready for you and your families to discover. Come explore the trails and see what awaits kids of all ages. The water is flowing in the canyon again, past flowers, slides, swings, beautiful carved benches and more. All set in a Colorado natural landscape of red rocks, grasses, and native plants. City Park Alliance is proud to to be an ongoing supporter of the campus and invites you to join us in celebrating this wonderful new addition to City Park.
